Very strange, maybe try to replace the arm, its pretty inexpensive (~$30)

Is anyone else having issues with the Icons? Winter is basically here and I'll be using the wipers again, so I'd like to know if it's worth spending almost $50 on wiper blades.

I just put a set on so I don't have enough data to comment. I'm sure that after my cross-country drive starting in a week I'll likely have something to comment on! Installation was easy. Oddly, there didn't appear to be any clip on my wiper arm to remove. I just took the old, stock blade off and put the new one on the driver's side and it worked perfectly, cleaning off a lot of crud the first time I used it.

Here is what you remove.. been bothering me for months... finally got to me and had to fix it. This is what you remove.

Just picked these up for all 3 wipers. Rear works great. Big hole in the drivers side sweep and the passenger makes such a racquet when changing directions. Went and bought replacements from the dealer. Much better.

If he had cleaned it then we would not see effect of the new wipers :D
